Tiivistelmä: | The labour market (hereafter as: l-m.) is a potential source of constraint in the entrepreneurial process due to recruitment (here as: recr.) of labour for launching ventures of entrepreneurs. In addition, competition in the l-m. likely does not end at the boundaries of the product market, as industries (here as: ind. / inds.) overlap in their needs for labour. This study uses an organizational (here as: org.) ecology framework to examine how founding rates in an ind. vary with the competition with other industries for labour, and thereby provides evidence of recr.-based competition between inds. in a community ecology. The extent of recr.-based overlap btw. inds. is inferred from data on flows of employees within and btw. inds. Analyses of founding rates in 84 inds. in Denmark over the period 19801991 suggest that new firms are less likely to appear in inds. occupying crowded regions of the l-m. |
